I believe brands grow when they listen first. Marketing isn’t about being loud, it’s about being honest, intentional, and human. When consumers feel seen, everything else follows.

"

GRACIE HARDY, DIGITAL MARKETING MANAGER

PULL UP A CHAIR

 Beauty marketing led by consumer insight, social listening, and community impact.

I am a beauty marketer working across brand, digital, influencer, communications, and PR. I pay close attention to how people talk about beauty, what resonates culturally, and where brands can show up in ways that feel real and intentional.

From campaign planning and launches to messaging, timelines, and trend research, I turn insight into thoughtful execution. I’m most inspired by work that builds trust, reflects diverse perspectives, and creates space for people to feel seen.

Brand Marketing

Make Boring Lines Epic

I oversaw the photoshoot for the NYX Eye Category Epic Ink Campaign launch and crafted the 360° go-to-market strategy, informed by insights, trends, and competitor analysis. My work spanned retail activation, push initiatives, and social hype. I led three high-impact team shareouts with 40+ attendees and drove the campaign to launch, exceeding budget by +93%.

EPIC INK GLITZ AND MATTE EYELINER LAUNCH

I collaborated cross-functionally with the DTC team to develop Stage 3 recommendations and copy for our .com site, Ultra Target, and Walmart. This included selecting hero assets and ensuring copy alignment with retail displays, etageres, boxes, and endcaps. I also tracked consumer sentiment across platforms and through our agency, Bazaarvoice, managing product orders and shipments to ensure reviews were live on the go-live date.

I managed the creation of purchase orders for the campaign and coordinated with agencies on net-60 payments. I also oversaw packaging and seeding for the video, and participated in strategic meetings to plan location, awareness, and video flow, including considerations for Spanish and English versions.

CAMPAIGN STRATEGY

I lead social content briefing for Instagram and TikTok, developing detailed creative briefs that outline makeup look concepts, copy and messaging, content goals, and video length. I partner with professional creators to execute the vision, then brief assets into our external agency, Genero, where I oversee multiple rounds of editing. Once finalized, I align deliverables with the social team to ensure assets are optimized and ready for publishing.
